2026 Rubber Tramp Rendezvous

 We're back. :) I've been volunteering for Homes on Wheels Alliance since 2019 but recently I began serving as the interim executive director when Suanne Carlson stepped down after holding that position for about 8 years and Phyllis Bickford retired. We've been a little shorthanded and the Rubber Tramp Rendezvous took a lot of planning. It went very well but I was extremely busy and took no photos. 

Here's a screenshot of Jaime, one of our trustees, and me announcing the winner of the ambulance Bob Wells donated to Homes on Wheels for a fundraiser. 

I'm going to get back to regular posting in a few days. The posts will continue our trip across country to Arizona so they'll be about a month back in time.

Slaton Park Campground City Park

There aren't any signs indicating that camping is permitted in this park but people have been staying at the park for years as reported in Campendium. We parked along the fence line by the tennis court. There are six or seven electric boxes but no water or dump station. 

The park is a bit rundown. The tennis courts look like they get little use and the pool is closed but the grass is kept trimmed and the baseball fields and the long picnic shelter are all in good condition. All in all a good, quiet place to stay for a night.  Park   33.43793, -101.65052
